How to consume 14" pepperoni pizza (thick crust) without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Limit your portion size by eating only a couple of slices instead of the entire pizza to reduce the overall intake of carbohydrates.
Increase Physical Activity
Engage in light exercise, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body use the glucose more efficiently.
Eat Fiber-Rich Foods
Before or alongside your pizza, eat foods high in fiber like a small salad with leafy greens, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes to slow digestion and glucose absorption.
Incorporate Protein
Add a side of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or a handful of nuts, to help balance your meal and reduce the impact on blood sugar levels.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout your meal to help with digestion and maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grain or Thin Crust
If possible, opt for a whole-grain or thin crust option for your pizza to decrease carbohydrate density and improve nutritional value.
Add Vegetables
Top your pizza with additional vegetables like bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach to add fiber and nutrients.
Monitor Timing
Try eating your pizza earlier in the day when your metabolism is more active, rather than late at night.
Practice Mindful Eating
Take your time to enjoy each bite, which can help prevent overeating and allow you to notice when you're satisfied.
Maintain Consistent Meal Patterns
Keep a regular meal schedule to help regulate your body's insulin response and prevent spikes.
